Aggressive caching within BC?

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Thu, 23 Oct 2014 00:19:41 GMT

Is anyone else experiencing intermittent overly aggressive caching of CSS & JS files by BC? E.g., the changes I make to the this .js file over SFTP don't propagate to the front end until I change the url params. The text on line 2 (after the comment opening) varies on each of these files:

http://www.dartconnections.org.au/V2/javascript/engine.js?cachebuster=2014-10-23T10:56:50

"foobar"

http://www.dartconnections.org.au/V2/javascript/engine.js?cachebuster=2014-10-21T16:58:36

"foobarbaz"

http://www.dartconnections.org.au/V2/javascript/engine.js?cachebuster=2014-10-23T11:02:48

It's not browser caching, as it happens across browsers.

It's not being cached by the PC, as it happens on the VMs I use for browser testing, and other PCs in the office.

It's not being cached by our ISP, as it's visible on the BrowserStack VMs.

It doesn't seem to affect all files.

Any clues? It's annoying to have to change the fetch URL for every change I want to test.

Webapps tag - filters "lastclassified" and "randomclassified" producing empty collections

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Wed, 08 Oct 2014 02:32:02 GMT

When using the {module_webapps} tag, the filters "lastclassified" and "randomclassified" producing empty collections. "all" and "lastest" are working OK.

Example code:

{module_webapps id="Member Directory" filter="lastclassified" itemid="Featured" template="" resultsPerPage="4" collection="members"}
{module_webapps id="Member Directory" filter="randomclassified" itemid="Featured" template="" resultsPerPage="4" collection="members2"}
{module_webapps id="Member Directory" filter="latest" itemid="Featured" template="" resultsPerPage="4" collection="members3"}
<pre><code>{{ this.members | json }}</code></pre>
<pre><code>{{ this.members2 | json }}</code></pre>
<pre><code>{{ this.members3 | json }}</code></pre>

Produces this output.

Liquid Collections: Accessing webapp fields with names that include spaces, inside attribute values

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Tue, 07 Oct 2014 08:03:56 GMT

(Answered the question as I was writing it...)

What is the syntax for accessing webapp fields such as "Customer Surname", when using Liquid Collections?

The old syntax allowed syntax like {tag_Customer Surname}, but I can't seem to find the equivalent for Liquid.

{module_webapps id="Customers" filter="all" collection="customers" template=""}

{% for person in this.customers %}

    <div class="fancydiv-{{ person['Icon Class'] }}">

        <h2>{{ person["Customer Name"] }}</h2>

    </div>

{% endfor %}

The key is to use single-quotes...

Unsupported characters in 301 Redirect 'from' field

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Mon, 29 Sep 2014 00:32:28 GMT

We're trying to add 301 redirects of the following format:

/cms/Contact-Us~83.aspx → /contact

to a site that's just taken over from another CMS, however there appear to be two issues:

1. the 'URL Redirects' page in admin won't accept `.aspx` suffix on the 'from' url; it complains the 'Destination' url contains invalid characters

2. the folder 'cms' gets removed from the 'From' url each time we come back to edit the item.

Have you come across this before? Did you find a solution?

We'd like to get this resolved soon, but we'll be using manual Javascript redirects in the meantime.

In-Context Editor can't handle implicit index.html

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Fri, 05 Sep 2014 01:07:19 GMT

The In-Context Editor can't handle implicit index.html - e.g., when a menu link points to /subfolder/ with a file named index.html inside, the link works fine on the front-end but In-Context Editor users get a 404 Page Not Found error.

Naively, it appends .htm to the folder, producing an invalid url like this: /subfolder/.htm

The workaround is to explicitly include the filename in the link like /subfolder/index.html, but this is undesirable.

Anyone else been bitten by this?

reCaptcha tag fails verification, "ReCaptchaAnswer" and "ReCaptchaChallenge" fields are empty in POST request

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Fri, 15 Aug 2014 01:40:18 GMT

When using a {module_recaptcha} tag in a BC form, the POST request will always fail with the response "ERROR: An error occurred. Image verification failed. If you believe this is incorrect, please contact your system administrator or go back and re-submit the form." if this line of Javascript is not present in the checkWholeForm___() function:

if (theForm.CaptchaV2) why += captchaIsInvalid(theForm, "Enter Word Verification in box below", "Please enter the correct Word Verification as seen in the image");

Because, innocuous as it seems, it actually has the side effect of changing the contents of the ReCaptchaAnswer and ReCaptchaChallenge fields generated by the reCaptcha widget. Check out in /CatalystScripts/ValidationFunctions.js.

Just thought I'd post this so there's something about it for search engines to find...

Is it possible to exclude pages (or entire folders) from the 'Pages' tool in Site Manager?

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Wed, 06 Aug 2014 04:50:10 GMT

Is it possible to exclude pages (or entire folders) from the 'Pages' tool in Site Manager?

In particular, I'd like to keep all the demo html files from a template stored in a subfolder on the site, but prevent these pages from being listed in the Site Manager › Pages window. Mainly to reduce the clutter for the client.

Ideally I'd be able to accomplish this with an 'ignore-me' file in the subfolder to be excluded.

{module_pagename} output is null while in In-Context Editing mode

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Tue, 05 Aug 2014 04:24:16 GMT

In ICE Editing mode, any page titles using the tag {module_pagename} are empty.

Is there any fix or workaround for this?

Accessing key/value pairs inside For loops

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Sat, 05 Jul 2014 03:47:41 GMT

According to Shopify's docs, Liquid allows accessing key/value pairs in for loops, like so:

{% for item in hash %} {{ item[0] }}: {{ item[1] }} {% endfor %}

This does not currently work in BC's Liquid renderer; the output of the key/value tags are blank. Here is an example using the always-available this.urlculture global object:

{ ... "urlculture": { "moduleName": "urlculture", "culture": "EN" }, ... }

{% for obj in this.urlculture %}

{{ obj | json }}

Key: {{ obj[0] }}
Value: {{ obj[1] }}
{% endfor %}

Here's the output I get:

{
  "Key": "moduleName",
  "Value": "urlculture"
}

Key:
Value:

{
  "Key": "culture",
  "Value": "EN"
}

Key:
Value:

Accessing them by name (like {{ obj.Key }} ) also fails.

Am I missing something, or is this just not implemented yet?

Also, Why isn't the nice code formatting shown in this post editor visible in the actual post?

{% raw %} tags don't disable tag processing

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Sat, 05 Jul 2014 04:33:46 GMT

Any Liquid syntax inside {% raw %}{% endraw %} tags should be ignored; current tests show BC's Liquid parser is rendering the contents anyway. E.g.:

   {% assign name = 'freestyle' %}   {% raw %}{{ name }}{% endraw %} = {{ name }}

...results in this output:

  {% raw %}freestyle{% endraw %} = freestyle

...when it should appear like this:

  {{ name }} = freestyle

Classifications not available from Liquid markup

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Sun, 06 Jul 2014 00:28:56 GMT

Listing available data with <pre>{{ this | json }}</pre> from inside a Classified (categorised?) web app item does not show the applied Classifications.

Having Classifications available would be very useful; there are many situations where we only want to show items that have a certain combination of Classifications.

For example, a large client has a webapp with ~36 "Pillar" classifications as well as six "Event Type" classifications. With the current system, we had to create 6×36 = 216 classifications to represent all the available combinations, and for every item the client must select the appropriate classification from that giant list. If we could have filtered on multiple Classifications using the Contains operator, we'd only need 6+36 classifications and everyone's life would be so much simpler.

Is this feature planned?
